Excellent

I haven't finished reading every chapter, but the chapters I have read are excellent. I can't wait to use the suggestions! This is the best book I have read on cover letters! I bought several books from resume's to cover letters and interview books and I have to say, this is the best one I have read. My suggestion is to purchase this book.

everyone looking for a job should know how to write a good cover letter--this will provide the guidance

Where are you in your job search?

If you have been out of the job market for quite a few years this is a good book to buy and read, as it goes through the step on how to apply for positions in the 21st century, i.e. networking, recruiters and internet. All of which is good information for the modern day job hunter. If you are not looking for this type of help then it is just a plain only book of examples and it is probably worth just browsing the internet for examples and not to buy this book.

You need this book!

I used this book when I was job searching during my senior year of college. I read it cover to cover, and followed the author's advice. I was highly successful in my job search, landing my dream job. I was even complimented several times on my "very creative" cover letter. You can't go wrong with this book!
